This volume offers a visual orientation that gives students a basic understanding of computing concepts. While combining topics and technology in a highly illustrated design geared to catch students' interest and motivate them, the text provides an accurate snapshot of contemporary computing. A three-level system of instruction at the end of each chapter allows students to follow a methodology of reviewing material. The first level offers a review of key terms, the second gives a review of key concepts, and the third has hands-on applications.
